“I write entirely to find out what I'm
thinking, what I'm looking at, what I see and what it means. What I want and
what I fear. I ‘believe’ for these very same reasons. As a believer and a writer my truth is that
everything that happens to me is a resource. All things have been given to us
for a purpose, and an artist must feel this more intensely. All that happens to
us, including our humiliations, our misfortunes, our embarrassments, all is
given to us as raw material, as clay, so that we may shape our art. Inevitably, writers are the exorcists of their
own demons. Inevitably, believing brings peace. Inevitably I have become a
brave writer and a brave believer”.
